My year of intrapreneurship: Enabling a better class of entrepreneurship

I'm currently a full-time student. When I leave university, I'll probably have very little money. I'm trying to decide whether I should get a job when I finish or whether I should embrace my poverty and do the entrepreneurship thing anyway.

I'm 90% determined that I should resist the pressure to 'just' make money. (No doubt the other 10% will follow by the time I've been in part-time employment for another year, especially with all these entrepreneurship resources I keep reading… :))

Over time, there will be periods where I'll be working for myself indirectly, i.e. officially employed. The key point is that no matter what I'm doing, it's crucial for me to maintain my entrepreneurship mindset. Cue this (growing!) collection of resources.

In the meantime, skills to cultivate:

• Student frugality
• Self-motivation
• Inner strength

Watch this space: In my next entry, I'll explore these: Why they're important and how I'm going to master them.
